Subject: [PATCH] 2.4: export the symbol "mmu_cr4_features" for XFree86 DRM kernel drivers
Date: Fri, 01 Aug 2003 13:52:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F2A62A2.mailx3G211O2B4@cdmnet.org> (raw)
I'd like to request comments on the appended; proposed patch for 2.4 to
export the symbol "mmu_cr4_features".
This is needed by the XFree86 DRM kernel drivers, since Christoph's
backport of vmap() in 2.4.22-pre7. [some] DRM kernel drivers (e.g. radeon]
refuse to load without this fix, from 2.4.22-pre7 onwards.
cheers,
Calum.
